Hex Sense

Guide Mochi across risky hex lands. His hex sense lets him read the numbers that give clues of how many dangers are nearby, and use them to find a safe path. Reveal tiles, flag traps, and guide brave Mochi to the Exit.

Hex Sense is a minesweeper-style puzzle on a field of hex tiles. Some tiles hide dangerous hazards, but clues around them help you figure out where it's safe to go. Cross several unique chapters filled with new kinds of hazards and clues.

Controls

Click or tap a hex to move onto it or to mark it.

How to Play

  1. Reveal a tile and read its number.
  2. Count the unrevealed neighbours it refers to.
  3. Mark the ones the number proves are dangerous.
  4. Move only onto tiles you have shown to be safe.

Tips & Tricks

Never move on a tile you have not proved. This board punishes optimism far more reliably than it punishes slowness.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a number on a hex telling me?

How many dangers sit in the six hexes adjacent to that tile, which is enough to deduce safe routes if you count carefully.

Is guessing ever necessary?

Rarely. Most positions are determinable, and moving before the numbers justify it is what ends most runs.
